Ways to Give

Many diseases that can affect all of us—flu, measles, pneumonia, meningitis, and whooping cough to name a few—are preventable. Other emerging diseases such as COVID-19 will require additional research on diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. With your support, we can raise awareness of the burden of infectious diseases and the value of prevention.
